cardigan is knit in Pirouette using a simple stockinette stitch, making this
easy to make and easier to wear. Matisse is knit flat in one piece from the
bottom up to the underarms Shoulders are shaped with short rows. The sleeves
are picked up around the armholes and worked down in the round. Berroco has
your bouclé yarn needs covered with Pirouette. This soft and squishy blend of
baby alpaca, Merino wool, and nylon works up best in simple stitch patterns for
your sweaters and accessories.
